After being on here for about 2 months reading and asking questions, I finally got my first cucv. It is a 1986 M1028A1. I bought it in Ohio on Saturday. There is very little rust and it runs great. The gentleman I bought it from said it came from the Mississippi National Guard. The following are things he did to the truck: New locks and ignition, new brass radiator with new hoses and oil cooler lines, new belts, transfer case output shaft seal, harmonic balancer, crankshaft front seal, water pump, AC gp, new gp controller card, gp relay, new PS pump and steering box. He handed me a file with all the receipts. The bad news, one of the locking hubs is gone, he thinks it has close to 100K miles on it, the 4 wheel drive light doesn't come on. The tires are firestone 265X75X16 with probably 3/4 plus tread left. Here are the tings I am going to do (with help from ya'll lol):
New weather stripping for door windows (6/11/2013 Use marine silicone, forget 3M adhesive)
New Shocks (recommendations?????)
New Hubs Milemarker 449SS (5/31/2013)
CDR Valve (5/30/2013)
New lens covers (5/23/2013)
Starter bracket ( 5/21/2012 )
New wipers ( 5/16/2013 )
New battery cables ( 6/25/2013 )
Doghead relay (done on 5/12/2013 )
GP resister bypass (done on 5/11/2013 )
GP controller bypass/add on ( 5/23/2013)
LMC light harness (done 5/14/2013)
Horn suppressor and diode removal ( 5/15/2013 )
New Air filter (Done 5/11/2013 AES filter)
Get Blackouts working/paint off of them
New tires. Hoping for STA 9.00X16 if they will fit.
Spray in liner
Tool box (weatherguard, just needs refinishing)
12v acc plug for phone charger and gps
Spin on Fuel filter
ODR bolt on steering brace ( Done 5/19/2013)
Headlights ( Silvestar H6054)
Sway bar taken off (7/09/2013 )
Anything else ya'll recommend??????
Please tell me if there is anything I should look at or do. Like I said this is my first one and I know what I have read on here and researched. All comments and opinions welcomed. I hope I can get the pictures up.
